- Looking for references to an Earth-centered frame rotating with the angular velocity of the Earth around the Sun.
I have seen plenty of references to Earth centered inertial frames (axes fixed with respect to the stars) and Earth-centered Earth fixed frames (axes fixed with respect to the Earth, rotating at the Earth's angular velocity of rotation with respect to the stars).
Does anyone know of a reference that uses a frame in which the origin is the Earth (or the barycenter of the Earth-Moon system), and in which the line from the origin to the Sun is fixed (so that the frame rotates at the angular velocity of the Earth around the Sun)?
